MARVELLOUS CHANGES.
Ehat the Future VIII BE to Those who
Refuse TO Believe.

Is this country uucons"Iously undergoing
a wonderful change, is the change to take
place before we are aware Of the ia t, and
when it has taken place viii We wonder why
we did not see it before 1t was too late.
Those that see the changes early avail
themselves early, and thereby receive bene-
fit.
The shrewd iron man SEES the iron inter-
est transferred from Pittshurg and Penn
sylvania to Birming ham, Alabama, and in his
far-sightelness ees the furnaces in Pennsyl-
vania torn down ana deserted for this new
and prolific field 1t is claimed BY the iron
men OF Alabama that the low pri, e at which
iron can Ice produced there will revolution
ize the iron interests OF the world.
We have seen the graingrowing centres Of
this country shifted to the West. We have
seen the pork packing industry fit from
Cincinnati to Chicago and from thence to
Kan>as City and Omaha Southern cotton
mills undersell New England and American
markets, aud challenge the world.
We have seen and are seem; all this take
place before our eye, an kn " that other
changes are talin. ! la C nI1liy "a prom
inent, ant wo wOader a We behold them.
Ten years ago the insu ance companies only
required an analysis of the fluids when they
were taking insurance for very large
amounts To-day no first-clasS company
will insure any amount unless they have a
rigid analy.i, II the ;u Dis passed. and il any
application Is rejected In their reports
they show thst the death of sixty of every
100 Ie0pie in this country, Is due either Ill
rectly or indirectly t. sIch disorders Tine
BrOmpton Hospital for ConSumptives, Ion
don, England, reports that sixty OF every 100
victims of consumption also have serious dis
orders of the kidneys.
Among scientists for the treatment OF
this dread malady the question is being dis
cussed:
lis not this disorder the real eau of con-
sumptionN
Ten years ago the microscope was some
thing seldom found in a physicians Off 9:
now every physician o. standing has one AMI
seldom visits his patients without calling for
o sample Of fluids for exa nination.
Why is ali this. Is it possible that We
of the present generation are to die
Of diseases caused by kidney dis
ordersl or shall we master the cause by
Warmers safe cure, the only recognized
specific and thus remove the effects. 1t Is
established beyond a doubt that very large
percentage of death in this country is
traceable to diseased kidneys. For years the
proprietors of Warmers safe cure have been
insisting that there is no sound health when
the kidneys are diseased, and they enthusiast
tically press their specific for this terrible
disorder upon public attention. Weare con-
tinually hearing its praises sounded.
This means wonders.
Cannot the prophet rs Of this great remedy,
who have cen warning us of the danger,
tell us how to avoid di,ease that ut first Is
so unimportant, and is so fatal in its termi-
pation2 Are we to hope against hope, and
wait without our reward
The most significant of all changes, how
ever, that we Of to-day can note is this radi-
cal change Of view to which the public has
been educated: 1t was formerly thought that
the kidneys we're o; very small Importance;
to-day, we believe it is generally admitted
that there can be no such thing as sound
health in any organ if they are in the least
degree deranged.
